im sure one of the tuners would send you bits, though at a premium. SEP of kegworth are specialists in recon/rebuilding cranks so are likely to have the bits you require and would probably sell them and post em, got to be cheaper then shipping a crank overseas. will see if i still have the phone number for SEP. is it just seals and bearings you require? or are you after rods etc? im sure rods are NLA so people fit kdx rods (i think) as there identical.
first one hasned answered, second one says he forwarded it to "Sam, he should be able to send you a price for all the bearings , seals, rods that you require" but I think Sam has died
anybody else an idea ?
My ultimate goal is to die young as late as possible !
He must have died after the 23rd of june then, because that was the last time he posted on here
Cheers

Sam has emailed me today so he is around, he normally responds within 12hrs as he checks his mail when he gets to work.
Did you mention your from the KR site>?
Might help...
Defo has the bits as i have a new crank sitting in a set of cases ready for next year built by Sam a few months ago!!

Jan,

James

Subject: seals and bearrings KR1 cranck
Hi,
I'm from Belgium, and over here nobody can find replacemant seals and bearrings for a KR1-cranck. Someone on the KR1-forum in the UK said I should contact you.
If shipping a cranck twice overseas wasn't that expensive, I wouldn't mind sending my cranck over, so I'm looking for someone who can just sell me the seals and bearrings.
Can you/would you sell them to me, and how much would it be for a full set for one cranck ?
Do you have complete rods with big ends asswell ? (I know where I can buy those, but getting everything from one adresse again saves me a bit on the shipping).
Cheers, Jan
I'll try sending it to Sam directly
